    Fruit in Secondary Fermentation

    Update, I removed the fruit and the airlock has quit. I guess this means its ok. I am thinking I will let it condition for a few more days then pop it into the kegerator. Finger crossed for some citrus hoppy awesomeness!!!

    Fruit in Secondary Fermentation

    Using pellet hops or loose leaf hops for dry hopping in primary?

    Also the Apollo is 18.4%AA and the citra is 14.2% when I calculated the ibu I was getting a little over 100 and brewtoad agrees. Should I be aiming higher for an imperial?

    Using pellet hops or loose leaf hops for dry hopping in primary?

    Using pellet hops or loose leaf hops for dry hopping in primary?

    Sorry if this isn't the right place to post this or if it's already been addressed, but here goes. I brewed my first self designed beer yesterday an imperial IPA. My concern regards the hops... I used 1oz Apollo 90 min, 1oz citra 45min, 1 oz citra 10min, and I am planning on 4oz dry hop for 14...

    Boil Temp

    The boiling temperature is mainly dependent on the concentration of sugars you have dissolved in the wort. So if you are working with a higher gravity beer the boiling point will be higher (For example I am working with one now that didn't hit a boil until nearly 225F. An easy way to remember it...
